Time Calendar - Trojan or False Positive?

I received an alert from the Trojan Hunter application that a trojan was detected. It pointed to the "Keylogger.Ehks.210" trojan, which was associated with a program I had running, "Time Calendar" (downloadable program from Tucows is TimeCalendar LE 1.6.3). The alert appeared when the Time Calendar program produced an alert for a birthday, which I had manually input. Right after this birthday alert appeared in Time Calendar, the alert from Trojan Hunter appeared, associating it with the "Keylogger.Ehks.210" trojan. I selected the Clean option, then uninstalled the Time Calendar program, and removed all remaining files that the uninstall didn't remove. I also ran a rull scan, which produced 0 trojans. Anyone have any information on this, regarding whether or not this program actually contains a trojan, or was this just a false positive? I've used this calendar program for 2 1/2 months, and this was the first time Trojan Hunter detected anything associated with it. Then again, this was also the first time that the Time Calendar "Alert" feature enabled itself. How could a calendar program using its Alert feature trigger a trojan, real or positive? Thanks, Chuck
